We study the number of intersections of the nodal lines of an eigenfunction of the Laplacian on the standard torus with a fixed reference curve, that is, the number of zeros of the eigenfunction restricted to the curve. An upper bound is…

Consider $M$, a bounded domain in ${\mathbb R}^d$, which is a Riemanian manifold with piecewise smooth boundary and suppose that the billiard associated to the geodesic flow reflecting on the boundary acording to the laws of geometric…

We consider the sequence of nodal counts for eigenfunctions of the Laplace-Beltrami operator in two dimensional domains. It was conjectured recently that this sequence stores some information pertaining to the geometry of the domain, and we…

We study the nodal set of eigenfunctions of the Laplace operator on the right angled isosceles triangle. A local analysis of the nodal pattern provides an algorithm for computing the number of nodal domains for any eigenfunction. In…

Let $S$ be a noncompact, finite area hyperbolic surface of type $(g, n)$. Let $\Delta_S$ denote the Laplace operator on $S$. As $S$ varies over the {\it moduli space} ${\mathcal{M}_{g, n}}$ of finite area hyperbolic surfaces of type $(g,…

We obtain lower bounds for the number of nodal domains of Hecke eigenfunctions on the sphere. Assuming the generalized Lindelof hypothesis we prove that the number of nodal domains of any Hecke eigenfunction grows with the eigenvalue of the…

We study the nodal set of the Steklov eigenfunctions on the boundary of a smooth bounded domain in $\mathbb{R}^n$ - the eigenfunctions of the Dirichlet-to-Neumann map. Under the assumption that the domain $\Omega$ is $C^2$, we prove a…

The hot spots conjecture of J. Rauch states that the second Neumann eigenfunction of the Laplace operator on a bounded Lipschitz domain in $\mathbb{R}^n$ attains its extrema only on the boundary of the domain. We present an analogous…

We prove upper bounds on the $L^p$ norms of eigenfunctions of the discrete Laplacian on regular graphs. We then apply these ideas to study the $L^p$ norms of joint eigenfunctions of the Laplacian and an averaging operator over a finite…

We give an example of a domain in dimension $N \geq 3$, homeomorphic to a ball and with analytic boundary, for which the second eigenvalue of the Dirichlet Laplacian has an eigenfunction with a closed nodal surface. The domain is…

It has been suggested that the distribution of the suitably normalized number of zeros of Laplacian eigenfunctions contains information about the geometry of the underlying domain. We study this distribution (more precisely, the…

Let $\ncal_{\phi_{\lambda}}$ be the nodal hypersurface of a $\Delta$-eigenfunction $\phi_{\lambda}$ of eigenvalue $\lambda^2$ on a smooth Riemannian manifold. We prove the following lower bound for its surface measure:…

The paper deals with asymptotic nodal geometry for the Laplace-Beltrami operator on closed surfaces. Given an eigenfunction f corresponding to a large eigenvalue, we study local asymmetry of the distribution of sign(f) with respect to the…

Let $M$ be a compact, connected Riemannian manifold whose Riemannian volume measure is denoted by $\sigma$. Let $f: M \rightarrow \mathbb{R}$ be a non-constant eigenfunction of the Laplacian. The random wave conjecture suggests that in…

We consider families of finite quantum graphs of increasing size and we are interested in how eigenfunctions are distributed over the graph. As a measure for the distribution of an eigenfunction on a graph we introduce the entropy, it has…

Analyzing nodal domains is a way to discern the structure of eigenvectors of operators on a graph. We give a new definition extending the concept of nodal domains to arbitrary signed graphs, and therefore to arbitrary symmetric matrices. We…

Let M be a closed Riemannian manifold. We consider the inner radius of a nodal domain for a large eigenvalue \lambda. We give upper and lower bounds on the inner radius of the type C/\lambda^k. Our proof is based on a local behavior of…

On convex co-compact hyperbolic surfaces with Hausdorff dimension of the limit set less than 1/2, we investigate high energy behaviour of Eisenstein Series. Eisenstein Series are non-L^2 eigenfunctions of the hyperbolic Laplacian which…

Using the spectral multiplicities of the standard torus, we endow the Laplace eigenspaces with Gaussian probability measures. This induces a notion of random Gaussian Laplace eigenfunctions on the torus ("arithmetic random waves"). We study…

Let $\Omega$ be a bounded domain in $\mathbb{R}^n$ with $C^{1}$ boundary and let $u_\lambda$ be a Dirichlet Laplace eigenfunction in $\Omega$ with eigenvalue $\lambda$. We show that the $(n-1)$-dimensional Hausdorff measure of the zero set…
